What is IRON STONE?
This stone comes from volcanic origin, it can have different names depending on your city., some call it topaz, pericó stone or rust stone Where basalt rust.
It is formed from metamorphic rocks that have textures that resemble rusty iron., that's why she brings so much beauty to environments.
This corten stone is a very resistant rock., this is due to the entire oxidation process that it goes through., that's why this stone has colors from brown, rust even black.
Ah, we cannot forget that this stone is of Brazilian origin!
Cores
The color of natural Iron Stone is rust, like an oxidized iron. This rock undergoes an oxidation process, causing different formats to appear, textures and colors.
You can see that in some photos the iron stone is more orange (rust) and other darker ones (brown and black). This will depend a lot on the quarry lot that the iron stone is extracted from..
Recently, a new stone color has been launched on the market, a black iron stone. even with that name, the stone still undergoes color variations in its lot.
Its predominant color is black., can come from gray stones, even yellowish. It's not a problem, because it brings a more natural and rustic feel to your environment..
When installing your iron stone, It is important to use all the stones that arrive in your work. do not select the colors and sizes! This will bring a big loss of stone, bringing a much bigger break.
Obs.: If you want to select the stones together with their placer, is important add a break much bigger than already recommended, above your footage. The recommended is a break of 10% a 15% depending on the work.
What does this "break" mean??
The break is nothing more than a safety margin that you need to buy for coating or flooring above the footage of the area to be coated..
Thickness
This is a big question for customers..
The thickness of the iron stone varies a lot. It is important to remember that we are talking about a natural stone., extracted from a rock and is not manufactured.
Iron stone may vary in thickness from 1 cm up to 3 cm, may have a greater variation depending on the model.
For example the irregular iron stone fillet can arrive from 2 a 8 cm thick. That's because it's an irregular stone, the focus here is not something “right”, it's something more rustic and unique.
in sawn stones, the thickness variation is also deliberate. This 3D effect that you find in the models is thanks to the high and low relief of the stone..
The placement of the embossing and embossing will depend on two things: thickness and mortar. at the time of placement, your placer will separate the stones further “fine” of the stones more “thick”.
Conform or purchased model, it will place a thinner stone next to a thick one., and so on. Not using stones of the same thickness side by side. This will make the 3D effect much more evident., making the placement much prettier.
Piso de Pedra does not work with stone installation. We always recommend a professional installer to install decorative stones for floors or walls.. At the time of your purchase, ask for a referral from the seller who is serving you.
